    Free thinking is cool in my book, my cousin lives in Arizona he uses terry cloth, to protect everything that you could burn your hands on or legs for the matter.

    I too had this issue with the dome light, and Meso was prompt to send a replacement. If I’m not mistaken there is something in there that is similar to a solid state relay that requires a certain voltage to maintain its state. If you have a lot of power draw from mods/upgrades it might not stay in whatever it’s non-native state is on that “relay” and revert back to a default. I could be talking out of my a$$ about it but it makes sense to me after some brief discussion I’ve had with folks there. I’ve also noticed that they are unlikely to switch from red to white if the truck isn’t powered on. This too, I believe is voltage related. I will be replacing my stock battery with a group 34 soon and likely be purchasing a higher output alternator. I’ll test these theories out after I get that done and see if the behavior is the same and get back to this thread on it.

    Either way, I’ve always had a great experience with Meso and love their products. If there is ever an issue they are prompt to address it. My only complaint is I never catch things in stock when I want to buy more!!

    Turns out that my cousin doesn’t like smoked lenses on quicksand. Red does indeed look better, so I do have the AlphaRex Pro’s available if you’re interested! DM me

    How is your experience with Ktjo4x4. I've heard REALLY polarizing reviews. They have quite a few mods I'd be interested in buying/installing but have seen that their customer support after purchase leaves people really unimpressed and frustrated.

    Womp womp, new flaps were a fail. Too short, wondering if the longer universal Rally Armors (4" longer than these) would cut the mustard?

    Nah, it’s an issue with the most recent batch of dual colors released and is a result of being designed to avoid the double click issue from the past releases. As already mentioned here several times, Meso is working on a fix and has started a list for people who want replacements for color memory functionality

    When I first got my 2020 Sport the hood scoop seemed so large and obtrusive. Fears of running over people. Had thoughts of switching the hood in those first few weeks. I'm 5'-11', da wife is 5'-2' and we are both used to it now. The 7 way power adjustable seat really helped. No issues once we got used to it and love the look of the Skeewp!.

    I just reviewed this...looking for a different post about $1400 for the OEM LED Headlights...nevermind about searching for that post.

    This angle definitely reflects the flush black trim under the lights.

    What are the trim plates you speak of?

    I believe these are what is being referred to Ed. The standard black trim plates replaced with body color plates.8700414A-8100-4AA7-9DC0-1117E8548F43.jpg

    LOLOLOLOLOL!

    Those are not very pleasant to the eyes.

    Considering I have a Midnight Black Sport, I wouldn't be fond of it either.
